A round-up of wines drunk recently
Catching up on things I’ve had in the last few weeks:
Salon Blanc de Blancs 1988 Beautiful and mature now. Needed 45 minutes to really show itself. Nutty, preserved lemon, cinnamon, great complexity. Beautiful resolution to the palate. A real treat.
Moillard Santenay 2005 Extremely underwhelming. Insipid. How do they stay in business?
Bouchard Père et Fils Bourgogne rouge 2006 Simple and reliable wine. More interesting the second day.
Gabriel Meffre Clos de Cyprès Vacqueyras 2005 Really nice wine for drinking and enjoying over lunch. Extremely affordable.
